    I don't know the answer to your poll question, but I do know that I like my current employer, Boyd Bros. They seemed the best fit for me out of school, and I don't regret a thing so far. All of the other flat bed companies has little things about them that I just didn't like. Boyd had the least negative points towards it, so that is where I went. Your question is very subjective, and you should just look at what all of them claim to offer, and go with the one that best suits your needs.

    Yes I agree I am pretty set on my choice this was more or less a debate type of thread. It was between TMC and PGT and as of now PGT has the best to offer me.
